Support for Linux

[guyluz11]

geoclue it's used in most Linux distributions as a dbus service for geoinformation: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue.

Canonical has already developed a native Dart client implementation of D-Bus.

So I guess all the pieces are there for Linux support now.
